"Okay."
attempt to remove the sword.

[Devastator]

"There!  They're out."

"You had several pieces of magic inside you that were causing your problems.  It was causing your body to wreck itself trying to grow taller.  The problem should be much better now, and you should be feeling some relief."

Examine the girl and see if there's any relief I can provide with my spells to help her recover faster.  If she's already feeling much better, there's no need for further work.  In any case, do any necessary follow up treatment, and then converse about payment.  Those words are more valuable than gold, but accept the agreed upon fee and some hugs.  If it looks like it'll be a hardship, don't worry about the gold.

Be very happy that she was able to be healed.

After that, I think Saeko will rest for a couple days, so close the shop and pay the attendants for a few days while I rest my arms.  They can do what they like, so long as they drop the turtle off well away from town, and spread the word about the dangerous turtle.  If someone has a better way to keep it imprisoned, they can have the turtle instead.  That spirit was probably weakened some from having anger drained from it.  Also talk with the man released from the grasp of the anger spirit, about what to do next and where he is now.  Give him a few gold if he needs it.

Oh, and drop the d10 Sound to make room for those three words.

"Okay."

"Whoa, what? What are you doing? We are the human sacrifices! They want our blood for the god, so get away from him!
Don't stop this.

[Lenglon]

"Yeah, I know, chill. I talked to the guy, he's not onboard with their plan. Unless you think you can fight them all off on your own, we need to trust this guy. Oh, and toss me my doctor bag before guarding the chokepoint by the entrance please, so we don't have to deal with more than one or two at a time."

[Egan_BW]

"Now we go home and enjoy the money we just earned."

Go back home, enjoy the money I just earned! Keep the gems in a safe place and don't tell anyone that I have them. I can sell them off at a gradual pace so that I don't get murdered for the loot. That much gold should be enough for me to live comfortably for a good long while before I need to go on another expedition. If these dummies want to go on another adventure before then, they can go with out me; I've had enough adventure for a while.

I will make sure to buy a nice shortsword, light armor, and a book to replace the one I left.

"My job it to protect you, or that's what I think I had to do. You can take the bag, but I'm not letting you touch that sword because that's stupidly dangerous and reckless for someone like you."

"If you want, I could try pulling it out. I'm kinda strong, and if the sword or god kills me or whatever... I guess I'll die. To be honest, I never had a clear purpose on life, and you seem to have a more important destiny than me. I think? I just feel that my life is not that valuable and, uh... Eh, screw it. I'm not really the right guy for sentimental speeches. Don't risk your life and let me pull the sword instead. Who knows how many curses are on it."

[Lenglon]

"Uh huh, who hired you again? Stop trying to tell me what to do, and get ready for the people chasing you so they can't take advantage of this big open area where their numbers can overwhelm. Chokepoints are friends to the outnumbered."
((Do you really think I'm going to just sit on my hands on the sidelines and do nothing? And you have no right to oppose my action in the first place since you aren't even in the same room as of turn start. My action is literally just one word before stepping forward and doing it from barely any distance away, while you're sprinting down a flight of stairs and yelling a paragraph before you can even try to oppose. Now stop trying to control me already.))

((It's IC and also because the cult claimed that you were the human sacrifice so Randolf is trying to help. The sword is probably a trap that will likely drain your blood or something like that or the god is some sort of vampiric creature.

"My my, I was hoping we could get the drop on you both and have the sacrifice done quickly. But it seems you're both too nosy for your own good."

They probably wanted you to interact with the god and pull the sword, and they even claimed that:

"Now, turn around and return whence you came, to the god's chamber.  It would be a waste to spill blood here."

This means they want you to be at the god's chamber and your blood will be spilled there because you are the sacrifice from the cultists to the impaled god. This is what Randolf thinks that is going on, as he wasn't present when you spoke with the god.))

((Also, don't get too angry please, you could just explain to Randolf what's going on from your point of view, mention what the god said and that would solve everything. He's confused and clueless and having to play a "brute" character is hard because I tend to either still make smart decisions or ones that are too stupid and hated by everyone.))

((That... doesn't really explain anything at all. But I'll edit my action about stopping you just because I don't want to argue right now.))

[Lenglon]

((Consdering that I really have no responsibility to justify my actions to you at all, and you need to stop trying to order me around, that's all you're gonna get.))

[Egan_BW]

((This conversation is oddly ooc. Random has the right to try to take control of the situation if he thinks that's what Randolf would do. And Randolf is an idiot, so it's plausible that he would do such an idiotic thing. This would not be a good thing for anyone involved, but RTD in large part is about not-good things happening to everyone.

No real need for ooc disagreement in this case. ooc should not have effect on how things play out in game, or at least that's my philosophy.))

[Devastator]

((Yeah, you're right, Egan, shouldn't interfere with this.))

Spawn in Alcahest! Bout time somebody saw the big city.

Zavi wasn't very convinced of the whole "wizards" thing until she arrived in the capital. And observed a few big mage gangs fighting each other. At this point she's thinking that's pretty neat, when she hears of a magical artifact that can apparently turn one person into a mage. She immediately blows all her money on it and maybe uh, does some other things to get at it.
